A sneak peak at Halloween deals

One of the best ways to save on Halloween costumes, aside from making them yourself, is to buy one early so you can get the slowest, cheapest, possible shipping.

CostumeDiscounters.com offers free expedited ground shipping on orders of $70 or more and they claim to have the lowest costume prices on the Internet. If you find a lower price for the same exact costume, they will match the price and give you a 20 discount.

Or, get 5 percent off a purchase of $30 or more using code JUNE5 at checkout. Expires June 30, 2009.

A little red riding hood costume was $15 (orig $20), a high school music Sharpay costume for teens was $20 (orig $50), and a snake eyes GI Joe costume was $20 (orig $30).
